UltraZeo’s BioDri Series of Water Repellent Finishes

BioDri is an advanced portfolio of fluorine-free and bio-based water repellent technologies engineered to meet the diverse performance and sustainability needs of textile manufacturers and apparel brands. Rather than a single product, BioDri comprises a versatile range of water-repellent solutions, each formulated to suit specific fiber types, fabric constructions, and end-use applications, from outdoor gear to technical textiles.

Developed as a high-performance alternative to conventional PFAS-based durable water repellents (DWRs), our bio-based technologies utilize plant-derived, non-toxic chemistry to deliver long-lasting water resistance while supporting environmental compliance and circular design goals.

Bio-Based Chemistry for Sustainable Textile Finishing

Our plant based formulations are derived from renewable raw materials, including oils sourced from palm fruit, and are designed to integrate seamlessly into modern textile finishing workflows. These technologies contain bio-based content exceeding 70%, verified according to ASTM D-6866-12 standards, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to eco-friendly textile treatments and a reduced environmental footprint.

Durable Water Repellency Without Fluorochemicals

BioDri’s water-repellent performance is engineered to withstand multiple laundering cycles, maintaining effective moisture protection over time. This makes BioDri ideal for textiles requiring reliable and long-lasting water repellency. Some examples include:

–Outdoor Apparel: jackets, pants, gloves, etc.

–Sportswear and activewear

–Workwear and Uniforms

–Home Textiles: cushions, curtains, upholstery

–Industrial Textiles: tarpaulins, protective fabrics, filtration materials

PFAS-Free and Certified for Sustainability:

Many technologies in the BioDri portfolio meet key environmental and safety standards, including bluesign®, ZDHC, Oeko-Tex®, and Eco-Passport, depending on the specific formulation and application.
